Newton Per Linear Meter (abbreviations: N/m, or Npm): is a force in newton applied over a unit length in linear meter.
Tonne Per Linear Meter (abbreviations: t/m, or tpm): is a force in tonne applied over a unit length in linear meter.
How to Convert Newton Per Linear Meters to Tonnes Per Linear Meters
Example: How many tonnes per linear meters are equivalent to 28.39 newton per linear meters?
As;
1 newton per linear meters = 0.0001124045 tonnes per linear meters
28.39 newton per linear meters = Y tonnes per linear meters
Assuming Y is the answer, and by criss-cross principle;
Y equals 28.39 times 0.0001124045 over 1
(i.e.) Y = 28.39 * 0.0001124045 / 1 = 0.003191163755 tonnes per linear meters
Answer is: 0.003191163755 tonnes per linear meters are equivalent to 28.39 newton per linear meters.
